Flint Catholic Podcast

We're right around Catholic Schools Week, so the theme for February will be Catholic Schools! In the first segment, Michael and I discuss the statistics of Catholic schools, and why we see their importance.

Sally Bartos is the principal of Powers Catholic School, and so we sit down to ask her about the importance of Catholic schools, and especially during this time of Covid-19. 

Today, we talk about the Pro-Life movement. In the second segment, we are joined by Jenny Ingles. Jenny Ingles is the Director for Natural Family Planning in the Diocese of Lansing where she coordinates Natural Family Planning programs throughout the diocese.  She also assists couples in choosing the right method of Natural Family Planning for their life circumstance and helps them troubleshoot any problems that they may have using NFP.  In addition, she is a Creighton Model FertilityCare Practitioner where she teaches couples how to understand, chart and make procreative and gynecological decisions using the Creighton Model FertilityCare System.  She graduated Magna Cum Laude from Hope College with a dual degree in Political Science and Sociology with an emphasis in Criminal Justice.

Today, Michael and I tell our favorite saint stories! 

After the break, we interview Michael Haggerty, one of the leaders of the Traditional Latin Mass at St. Matthew's in Flint. We talk about the Mass itself, and he gives some tips for those who would like to attend, but don't know what to do. On Saturday, we will release the full interview.

Happy New Year! We made it to 2021!

We're gonna start a monthly segment called #BYOB - we'll take a segment and go through 12 different books of the bible. The books we chose are ones that we typically don't hear from and may not be as familiar with. The first book we're gonna look at today is the book of Judges.

On January 8th, we'll celebrate the Baptism of Jesus, and so we figured this was a good time to talk about Baptism in general. 

Today we talk about New Years resolutions - and the best strategies to follow through on them.  In the second segment, we talk about the Solemnity that we celebrate on January 1st, the Solemnity of Mary, Mother of God, the Theotokos.

I'm just gonna say it. If you decide to skip this episode, you're making a huge mistake! We talk about Fr. Joe Krupp's vocation story, his beard, his church building project, and his beer! Fr.

You can follow him on Twitter at @joeinblack, on facebook at facebook.com/joeinblack, and on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCLESZaSvhzT-YhRCEFb9Q3A for his Quarantine Catechesis.
